Howdy, We all had a pretty rough day at the dealership Friday. First off, it was our service manager's last day at work. He's been with us for better than 15 years I believe. Unfortunately he wasn't retiring either. He's simply going to a different job. Told me that he didn't want to have to be carried out on a stretcher. A lot of folks didn't realize the amount of stress that he was under. He was the first person to go the extra mile to help customers but people pretty much used and abused that good quality he had. He would have people call him at home at all hours, stop off at his shop and bother him constantly. It was ridiculous and pretty much drove him out of here. But to top that off we came in Friday morning to find out that one of our nicest customers had been killed the night before. He was working around a moving pto shaft and the draw strings on his hood got caught choking him to death. He was only 50. His family is really tore up and a lot of the folks here that knew him well are too. I didn't know him very well but did find him to be a heck of a nice guy. Please keep his family in mind and those who knew him. A sad story for sure and it shouldn't have happened. God bless. --old fashioned farmer

12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
